    Dude! It’s hard enough landing a big tarpon from a skiff with a guide - but solo from a kayak? Mad skills.

    The second tarpon is making me wandering what really happened. The leader looks like having a few inches frayed. Is that correct? If so it doesn’t make sense. It was a new leader. Do you believe that fighting too hard wouldn’t frail it?
